Rush Limbaugh thinks hurricanes are part of a left-wing conspiracy

Hurricane Matthew has left dozens dead and devastation throughout the Caribbean and it's expected to strengthen on its way to Florida. But it appears Rush Limbaugh doesn't really believe in hurricanes as a threat.
The conservative talk show host suggested this week that hurricanes are part of a left-wing conspiracy to try to convince the general public that climate change is real.
He commented on his show that the National Hurricane Center was "playing games" with its forecasts to cause false alarms and scare people.

He admitted that Hurricane Matthew was "a serious storm" but that it was the first one in 11 years. Leaving out major storms like Hurricanes Sandy, Irene and Ike.
Limbaugh also went after former Vice President Al Gore, saying Gore has warned of bigger and more powerful storms hitting the U.S. every year because of climate change. Gore, for the record has not blamed global warming alone and has talked about cycles of storms.
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are making sure they are part of the Hurricane news cycle. Clinton is buying airtime on the Weather channel in major Florida Markets and Trump has also reached out to governor Rick Scott to check in on how the state is preparing.
